A low-growing delight whose little flowers are the bluest of blues. This vigorous variety of Siberian Squill naturalizes readily, spreading by seed and offsets. Early spring.

Scillas have the agreeable habit of self-propagating freely in full sun or light shade and well-drained soil, living long, trouble-free lives. They naturalize readily in low grass or at the feet of deciduous trees and shrubs. The short stature of most makes them welcome at the front of a perennial border or in a rock garden as well.

For more information on the planting and care of Scilla, click Growing Guide.

The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.

Stunning color

Oh, I love these beauties. Simple as it gets, they seem to thrive on neglect. Reliable, vibrant blue carpet, looks dazzling with miniature yellow daffodils. Some are in shade, others I put in a sunny area - they all come up and bloom happily.

this bulb works where others don't!

I have tried many other miniature spring bulbs in my impossible garden (shady conditions, clay soil and an aggressive sprinkler system during the dormant season, when most bulbs don't want much water). This bulb is the only one that has taken off. It's amazing. Only drawback is that the bloom season is short, but it certainly makes me feel better in late March/early April when everything else looks drab!

pleasantly surprised

a brand-new gardener
from Arkansas

I have a new home with a shady side yard where nothing has grown yet. I ordered 50 of these bulbs to kind of fill in that area, only to discover instead of proper dirt I had a bunch of wet clay construction fill. I planted them anyway, as I had no place else to put them, but I did not have much hope. So far, they have pretty much all sprouted and many are blooming already. I have heard these flowers can become a nuisance, but since it doesn't look like much else can even live in this wet clay/shade area I'm not worried about them taking it over. I look forward to them spreading into a carpet of blue.

Glowing Blue Dazzlers

Michele, 40 acres never enough gardner
from Stoughton,MA

I use it for Flagpole decoration,keeping with an American Red,White & Blue theme. True Blues are hard to find. The Veterans loved it at my Sportsmen's Club. Comes up every year in greater color & needs to be matched with similar whites & reds.
I love the "glowing blue" effect. It seems like someone put on a blue lightswitch and you can't seem to stop looking at the flowers.

Plant 3 times the height of the bulb deep and 3 times the bulb's width apart (bulb size varies depending on cultivar; it is hard to be more specific). These woodland plants thrive in full sun or shade.
